If you are a current Clarkson University student with a 3.25 GPA and at least two years left as an undergraduate, you can apply to join Clarkson Honors.
What is Clarkson Honors?
1. We provide a separate Honors curriculum that covers the Clarkson Knowledge Areas, and in which you develop your own research or area of interest in a Capstone project.
2. We emphasize cross-disciplinary and hands-on learning and provide funding and opportunities to pursue those endeavors extracurricularly.
3. Our students form a welcoming on-campus community that you will belong to as long as you’re here.
4. We support our students academically, socially, and financially with unique coursework, holistic advising, Honors student events, and additional scholarship opportunities.
We are accepting applications from May 1st-June 1st. We will review applications and notify all applicants of our decision in late June. If you are a student you can apply here. If you are a faculty member who has a student you think would find a home in Honors, please share this information with them and encourage them to apply.
Our application consists of two essay questions, a resume, and an optional letter of recommendation and can also be found on the Honors website under ‘Current Students (Self-Nomination)’:
